Rotisserie chickens have become all the rage in our local supermarkets”and why not? They can be the base of a quick, almost-homemade dinner in no time. Here, roasted chicken turns into an easy salad with some crusty garlic bread on the side.

Ingredients

Serves:

2 cloves garlic, peeled

3 tablespoons cider vinegar or white-wine vinegar

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

1/4 cup Kalamata olives, pitted and chopped

8 cups mixed salad greens

4 1/2-inch slices whole-wheat country bread, toasted

1 2-pound roasted chicken (hot or cold), skin discarded, sliced into large pieces (see Ingredient Note)

Directions

1. Mince one garlic clove and whisk with vinegar, oil and olives in a medium bowl. Toss greens in the dressing to coat well.

2. Rub each bread slice with the remaining garlic clove. (Discard garlic.) Divide the salad among 4 plates, place chicken on top and serve with the bread.

Ingredient Note: Store-bought rotisserie chicken is convenient and practical”but much higher in sodium than a home-roasted bird. Even the unseasoned varieties have been marinated or seasoned with salty flavorings. People with hypertension should think twice before choosing store-bought.

4 ounces home-roasted chicken: 100 mg sodium

4 ounces rotisserie chicken: 350-450 mg sodium
